Big Wheel In The Sky

When I was a little girl I had a Powder Puff and my brother had a Big Wheel.

One day I left my crayons out on the picnic table, and they melted and burned my fingers.

Another time I left my purple Miss Piggy watch on the picnic table overnight (even though I remember my Mom telling me not to) and in the morning it was floating in our little swimming pool, ruined. I always thought someone had come into our backyard and put it in the pool. Why would anyone do that? I thought it was so mean. But now I realize that it probably blew off the picnic table, and into the pool. Maybe.A boy across the street used to give me puffy stickers, and one time I was playing on his swing set - he had the really tall one with the big slide and the bench/glider swing. When we were at the top of the slide he KISSED ME - on the cheek! And I was so mad. I slid down and ran all the way home and I think I told my Mom I was sick and I threw away all the stickers he gave me.

These were taken with my iphone. I've been really lazy with my big camera lately.But eh, it's summer.

I keep promising the boys we can set out some crayons to melt. We should do that, the sun is out today.

In this heat we're having in TX melting crayons would be easy. You could probably fry an egg while you were at it!!! Love the pics of Ivy and she looks so cute with her pony tail!! You're making want to try for a little girl with all these adorable picks of Miss Ivy!!!

For even more fun - grate some old crayons onto a white t-shirt and let it sit in the sun and melt (put something in the middle so they don't bleed throught to the back - like cardboard)It makes "cool designs" This is one of our favorite summer activities!
